An interdisciplinary network for collaborative research and education
Coordinated by the University of Zurich, the Knowledge for Climate Network currently includes five academic institutions in Switzerland, and six universities in Latin America (Colombia, El Salvador and Peru) and South Asia (India and Nepal). We bring knowledge and expertise in climate science, physical and human geography, economics, anthropology, applied ethics, visual arts, and pedagogy, as well as long-standing experience working with stakeholders and policymakers.  Over the mid- to long-term we seek to extend the network by diversifying disciplinary and regional capacities and by reaching beyond the academic sector to stakeholders in the governmental, non-governmental and private sectors.
